Chapter 56 Rabbit and Mountain Bird, you are born to fit my soul.
Since Qin Yonglian took over the group's industries, he has always focused on corporate linkage and blurred industry boundaries through innovation.
His efforts in traveling around the country for several months were not in vain, and the new business network he actively built now showed results.
Aihe Hotel stood out from the traditional hotel industry and launched a commercial satellite in collaboration with Xizao Telecom, a subsidiary of the same group.
He predicts that after the global satellite network is completed, the industry will be able to provide users with precise intelligent services and rich application scenarios, and there will be huge room for development.
All of the industries of the Qin Group: real estate, hotels, telecommunications, gaming/gambling, automobiles, logistics... are closely related to this.
Xizao Telecom's main technical support partner is Morning Star Group. As the saying goes, there is no such thing as a wall that is impenetrable. Morning Star's senior management heard inside information about Qin Yongyi through their personal network and began to doubt the loyalty of Qin's company.
The contract that was originally scheduled to be signed and sealed was delayed, and the purchased machines were simply stopped on the way to transportation. This time, the Qin Group was facing internal and external troubles.
Tan Ansen needs to rest and recover, and the second brother's incident also dealt him a big blow.
Qin Yongli has not been in charge of the group's affairs for several years, and it will take time for him to get familiar with it again.
The real person responsible is Qin Yonglian. He is fighting against the domino effect caused by Qin Yongyi and trying to resume cooperation with Morningstar before the evaluation meeting.
This commercial in-orbit satellite evaluation meeting is as important as a ticket. If we cannot obtain a pass ticket, we will have no choice but to shut down Xizao Telecom.
Morningstar Group has achieved compatibility and interoperability between new frequency signals and mainstream systems, demonstrating absolute competitiveness in application costs.
It currently dominates the market and is a hot commodity that countless companies are vying for.
Deng Yuqian, who never cared about current affairs, arranged a dinner for Qin Yonglian. Miss He had just returned from studying in the UK. The reason was: let Qin Yonglian take her to Hong Kong for a few days so that they could "make friends."
Her family is a major shareholder of Morningstar, and they both know this tacitly.
Qin Yonglian stood firm and handed the matter over to Qin Yuan. Deng Yuqian's first overture was met with a cold reception.
Qin Yongli acted as a peacemaker between the two. He knew that his mother was the one who benefited from the corporate marriage of the last century but also lost her life.
The eldest brother's way of repaying Qin Yonglian was to give his younger brother a life where he could choose his own marriage.
Qin Yonglian asked Qin Yuan to keep these things a secret, especially from Bai Ying.
A man should solve his career through the right path. This is his dignity.

Upon learning that Bai Feixiong was coming to Hong Kong on a business trip, no matter how busy he was, Qin Yonglian took time out to go to the airport with Bai Ying to pick up his future father-in-law.
Because he loves the girl, he must show his sincerity when he wants to marry her in the future.
The happiest person is of course Bai Ying. She hasn't seen her father for a year and a half, and they can only talk through video calls every week. She has countless words of missing him that she wants to tell him.
In such excitement, they even packed Coffee into a spaceship-shaped cat bag and went to pick up grandpa.
Qin Yonglian was worried that there were too many people at the airport. What if the cat got nervous and scratched the future Taishan?
Bai Ying waved her hand and said, "It's okay. Dad likes cats too. As a family, we should be together."
"Meow~" Coffee seconded the motion.
It agrees with its mother's point of view and is not afraid of unfamiliar environments. After all, it was once a kitten that roamed the world.
Meeting Bai Feixiong, Qin Yonglian once again felt the strength of the Bai family's genes. Bai Feixiong was like a younger version of Bai Xuan and a middle-aged version of Bai Ying.
The man stayed in the laboratory for a long time, so his skin looked very fair. He spoke with full energy and had a professorial demeanor.
Because of his many years of military experience, he walked with his back straight and looked energetic.
Bai Ying rarely talked about her parents' occupations. Every time she mentioned it to Qin Yonglian, she only talked about the details of her life with her parents.
There were also several uniformed civil servants who came to pick up Bai Feixiong, so they could only meet briefly in a coffee shop at the airport.
In front of her father, Bai Ying did not feel any strangeness as if they had not seen each other for a long time. Instead, she was even more excited and clingy.
Even a serious and calm person like Bai Feixiong couldn't hide the smile on his lips throughout the whole process.
No matter how serious a man is, once he opens his mouth to talk to Bai Ying, it's like the intimate tone of an adult talking to a little girl.
Qin Yonglian laughed in his heart, wondering if he would unconsciously adopt this tone when talking to his girlfriend.
The hasty meeting lasted for half an hour. When leaving, Bai Feixiong patted Qin Yonglian on the shoulder:
"Leon, I already know your situation. It's hard to find a true friend in life. I hope you can love each other and make progress together."
Qin Yonglian unconsciously stood at attention and said, "Uncle Bai, please rest assured. I will definitely take good care of Yingying."
"Come on, young man. I'm looking forward to seeing you next time."
Watching Bai Feixiong get on the bus and leave, Qin Yonglian had a victorious smile on his face, his tense nerves relaxed, and he walked briskly with the cat bag on his back.
Coffee, who had been calm and composed throughout the whole process of trying to make his grandpa happy, lost his composure at this moment and meowed: "Daddy, be gentle, or I'm going to vomit if you shake me again!"

On the day of the commercial in-orbit satellite evaluation meeting, Qin Yonglian got up very early, and the one who got up earlier than him was Bai Ying.
The girl, who had been closely following her boyfriend's career, made heart-shaped fortune cookies for Qin Yonglian when she heard that he had failed in negotiations with Morning Star Group.
Just like when she went to take the exam and Qin Yonglian cheered her on for the memory bread she made, Bai Ying decided to use her own little universe to share her luck with him.
When Qin Yonglian went downstairs, a pink and white rabbit poked its head out of the kitchen and sang a cheerful song:
"Yeah! Look around, there are so many cute girls that I can't take my eyes off them. How could a humble flower catch your attention?①"
The girl in front of me was wearing the bunny ears she had brought back from the maid cafe, with double high ponytails, a French bow knot, and a sweet and lovely lace cake skirt, giving people a huge visual contrast.
Qin Yonglian smiled with his eyes curved. His girlfriend was obsessed with uniforms and he also started to like them. What should he do?
“e on! e on! Baby!”
"Hurry up and tell me your fortune! Love fortune cookie! The future isn't bad!"
Bai Ying continued to hum a song, picked up a cookie and put it to Qin Yonglian's mouth. There seemed to be diamonds shining in her eyes, which hit his eyes directly.
“Life can be lived brilliantly, and astonishing miracles will always happen.”
On the remaining cookies on the box, Bai Ying wrote four big words in cream: [A successful start].
Qin Yonglian felt like a general about to go to the battlefield.
“Please! Please! Baby!”
Tomorrow’s wind will blow tomorrow, so be the best version of yourself today.
The love cookies of your heart make you strive to be better than you are today④."
After Bai Ying finished singing, she hugged Qin Yonglian's waist and said, "Please! Please! Baby! Come on!"
"Thank you, baby. I will fight for you." The man leaned closer and bent down to kiss his princess. His voice was soft and gentle, but every word was powerful and confident enough.
A technology-themed assessment meeting was held at the Peninsula Hotel in Tsim Sha Tsui. The gorgeous and elegant venue layout added a touch of solemnity to the participants.
Qin Yonglian had no intention of paying attention to the scene, but was silently organizing the key points of his presentation in his mind. He would be the main speaker of this presentation, which concerned the future of Qin's enterprise.
His gaze found the Chief Engineer sitting in the front row, and his eyes met those smiling eyes. Qin Yonglian suddenly smiled. It turned out that he was the mysterious Chief Engineer, Patrick.
Qin Yuan took all of this in and wondered in his heart: Could it be that the beast was too nervous and had a seizure?
The Beast Boss said softly, "Just believe in yourself, don't be nervous."
"Are you so sure?"
"Of course, I'm the one who ate the fortune cookie." Bai Ying's extremely serious eyes suddenly flashed through his mind, and the man's smile deepened.
Qin Yuan: “…”
Boss, stay focused! Why are you showing off at this critical moment?
*** ***
After finally finishing the evaluation meeting, Qin Yonglian was able to take a break and catch his breath.
Bai Ying was not idle either. The rare gathering of the Knights was put on the agenda again, and all the group members were invited to a BBQ at the villa halfway up the mountain.
When Zhang Caiyi saw Bai Ying, she gave the girl a big hug and exclaimed, "My friend! You are so awesome."
Bo Ying successfully invited the mysterious and popular molecular cuisine chef Mr. Rabbit to attend an exclusive interview at the station.
The show was highly hyped because it had more than one heavyweight guest and the host was the well-known gourmet Yamatorio who had never appeared in public.
During the live broadcast, the new trending search that rose rapidly was
#Mr. Rabbit and Miss Bird#
#Island Forest Molecular Cuisine#
Riding on the popularity of the highest ratings, Zhang Caiyi was successfully promoted to become the youngest program PD in the station.
Su Jiahao had to work overtime that day, and when he arrived at the villa, the group members had already disbanded. Only Xuemei Bai was kind enough to reserve a portion of barbecue.
"Help yourself." Qin Yonglian said lightly, implying that he should finish his meal quickly and go home.
"My junior is still the most righteous." Senior Su ate heartily, clicked on the most talked-about video on YouTube, and ate while watching.
The young couple was tired from their work and huddled together on the polar bear sofa, whispering to each other. From time to time, Su Jiahao would groan in frustration, "What I'm eating isn't food, it's dog food!"
The mysterious figure of molecular cuisine at "Island Forest", Mr. Rabbit, makes a dazzling appearance.
Still wearing his bunny headgear, sharp-eyed netizens immediately estimated the man's height by using the reference objects nearby.
Mr. Longlong smiled and said, "You guessed right. He's over 1.9 meters tall."
Equally eye-catching is the petite and cute girl next to him, the gourmet Yamadori.
To match Mr. Rabbit's look, Yamadori also wore a pair of huge feather glasses that covered one-third of his face.
Netizen Li: [Surprise! Shanniao is actually a young lady! She's been writing food reviews for 10 years and her writing is brilliant. Has she been writing columns since she was 10?!]
Netizen Fat Fox Ah Miao: [I got hooked on tofu pudding in Hung Hom two years ago. The foodie recommendations posted on the wall were written by Shanniao.]
Mr. Rabbit had never done a live broadcast before, and his eyes were fixed on the screen that was sliding across the screen quickly.
Yamadori couldn't help but raise his hand and poke Mr. Rabbit's mask.
Netizen Chlorine Leaf: [Ahh! I got a sweet moment. As soon as the mountain bird spoke, Mr. Rabbit looked at her and smiled.]
Netizen Luo Yu: [New screenshot obtained! Smiling handsome rabbit.jpg]
Shanniao: [Hello everyone, I'm Foodie Shanniao. Thank you, Mr. Rabbit, for inviting me to our special interview.]
Mr. Rabbit: [Hi, I'm Longlong.]
Yamadori: [Why do you call yourself Longlong? ]
Mr. Rabbit: [Because my English name sounds like "long long" when I say it quickly.]
Yamadori: [The name was chosen quite casually, but in the shop "Island Forest", you can feel this calmness and casualness everywhere.]
Mr. Rabbit: [It sounds very philosophical, but it is true. Molecular gastronomy is not just about food, it is about creation and exploration.]
Yamadori: [Is this your attitude towards life?]
Mr. Rabbit: [That's right, only when you are calm and at ease can you discover more details and the truth.]
Yamadori: There's a lot of controversy online about molecular gastronomy, with some saying it's just fancy cooking and that traditional cooking techniques should be preserved. What are your thoughts?
Mr. Rabbit: [Everything has two sides. Innovation allows people to experience more. Life is full of joy, and often, joy comes from acting spontaneously. In such situations, seeking common ground while reserving differences is crucial.]
Mr. Rabbit, who was in the middle of a question-and-answer session, suddenly changed the subject and tactfully mentioned the recent negative reviews of Shanniao.
Mr. Rabbit: [I don't know if those malicious commenters are watching this show, or if you are thinking about how to take Shan Niao's words out of context to discredit her. In any case, I am her staunch supporter.]
Yamadori was obviously stunned by the lines that were out of the script. The protagonists of this scene were Mr. Rabbit and molecular cuisine, and she didn't want to occupy this public resource.
Mr. Rabbit continued: [You may be the sweetest apple on the tree, but some people just don’t like apples.]
Yamadori nodded: "Just like people who hate cilantro, there's no difference between good cilantro and bad cilantro."
Mr. Rabbit said to her: "You have always insisted on being yourself. We can all see your efforts."
Shanniao smiled and said, "Thanks for the encouragement. I hope everyone can think this way: don't always expect to be liked by everyone, but focus on being the person you like."
Netizen Huangtao Canned Tofu: [Ahhh, is this really the first time the rabbit and the mountain bird have met?]
Mr. Rabbit looked towards the camera, his green eyes seeming to penetrate the screen, and he said:
[Alice in Wonderland met the rabbit. Do you think this was their first meeting? Whose knight was the rabbit?]
Netizen Running Dunni: [Looking for the same contact lens shade as Mr. Rabbit, and a link!]
Netizens are awesome: [Woohoo, hold up the CP banner! ]
Shanniao looked at the screen seriously and read the comment: [Rabbit and Shanniao want to be together! ]
After reading it, I realized: Eh?!
Its silly and cute look was so adorable that Mr. Rabbit couldn't help but rub the mountain bird's head with his hands.
Netizen Ostcherev: [Head pat, kill! Aaaaaah! ]
Su Jiahao was also howling, waving his hands in the air and shouting, "I'm not going to watch it anymore, single dog crit!"
Finish your meal quickly, don't be a third wheel, and leave decisively.
Bai Yingle giggled, resting her head comfortably in Qin Yonglian's arms, and asked, "Did you agree to go on the show because you wanted to support me?"
"It was my negligence. I was so focused on the company that I didn't realize you were also facing the pressure alone."
"There are a lot fewer bad reviews. Is that also your fault?"
Qin Yonglian admitted: "Su Jiajia has experience. I checked through her channels and found that some of them are water armies hired by Qin Yongyi, and some are homogeneous competitors."
He was just doing his brother a favor by removing all the bad reviews that Qin Yongyi had bought.
Mr. Xiao Tan is still relatively wealthy, which perfectly demonstrates the power of capital.
What attracted much attention was the special feature on kitchen knives in the "Human Fireworks" issue. Yamadori showed off his birthday present that year, which was a handmade knife made by a craftsman that his grandfather found when he was traveling in Japan.
Netizens maliciously distorted the audience's orientation, escalating the issue to a national and ethnic confrontation, and portrayed Shan Niao as a traitor who worshipped foreigners and fawned on them.
Many people who did not know the truth blocked Shanniao just by reading the comments.
Bai Ying felt aggrieved. She showed off her private collection of five knives on the show, and the only one made abroad became the target of attacks on her.
"Ah, isn't it good to let a hundred flowers bloom and flourish in their own way?" Bai Ying sighed. "In fact, there will still be people who don't believe me and think I'm hyping it up and using it as an opportunity to whitewash myself."
"Then your boyfriend will have everyone at Xizao Public Relations wash your hands for you."
Bai Ying squeezed the man's palm. "But the people who like me have always supported me. I want to focus all my energy on protecting my creative desire and presenting them with the best work."
The evening breeze was blowing and the lights were not on in the villa, but Qin Yonglian felt that the whole world was lighting up for Bai Ying.
The girl who said this made him admire her and wanted to kiss her.
He didn't know how big the world was or how vast the universe was.
Compared to Bai Ying, he has only been to a limited number of places and his knowledge is mostly theoretical. Bai Ying always thinks outside the box, is not afraid of the unknown, and strives to do what she believes is right.
This is an ability that Qin Yonglian and most people do not possess.
"Boo, boo."
"What's the matter?"
"Thank you," the man gazed at her affectionately, "you are born to be my soul."

The original song is an idol song with a Showa style, which is quite energetic.
The song chosen by the protagonist in the article serves the plot only and does not carry any other meaning or allusion.
Life is about eating delicious food and constantly cheering ourselves up. I hope we can all be as carefree as Yingying.
⑤ This sentence comes from the writer Duras's "Hiroshima Mon Amour". The original sentence is "This city is born for love, and you are born for my soul."
